My speaker died. Looking to buy a new one. (value and durability)

[LOST TALE]

Hi.

 

Please check out price in my region (Canada) before u try help with recommendation.

My pricing range is up to 100$. Less is better. 40$ is good. 20, I may have some doubts about the quality but its the quality not the price that I care about.

For financial preference context: shipping time is no big deal. I'd rather save 10$ and wait a few days. My system came back to life... just in time for a battlefield tour. but I'd rather have one new and ready in case this one dies. I used my headphones while it was broke and the speakers are much preferred (convenient).

 

I want one that is durable. I'm not a very high volume user.

The one I have now (half broken) is a VS2621. The reason it broke is because a year ago it was put at max volume by some drunk user at my mother's home. Since then It showed to damage but was working 90+%.

 

I'm looking for one that has good sound overall and perceive very steep diminishing returns on anything above 40$.

Areas of focus:

Durability, resistance to normal high volume level strain. and low duration high volume accidents (before u have time to adjust volume dial)

 

Areas of compromise:

Can be less loud

Doesn't have to be noticeably good to an audiophile.

I had these for a while the sound is very good once  you burn them in:

It has higher wattage so id assume it will be louder

I think it's out of my target budget: https://www.amazon.ca/Trust-Speaker-Subwoofer-Laptop-UK-Plug/dp/B0061J3GPU?tag=linustechtips-21

ahh okie, best thing to do is check your Maple Amazon and check the reviews of the speakers in your price range.

review are vital to audio products as sound quality cannot be manufactured only appreciated by those who experience if first hand.

like going into a store and listening to the product before buying

How much are you looking at spending?

 

The Logitech Z623 can go pretty loud without a problem. It's ~160 CAD from Amazon/Best Buy.

It's 22% off right now. the refurbished is 58% off. Should I wait for black friday or boxing day for a better price?

If you're able to find a cheap set of Logitech Z333, you might be happy with them.
They're loud, and sound okay

Is it a good idea to buy refurbished at 58% off? I only care about the sound and don't mind if there's aesthetic imperfections.
